Over the summer, Darn Good Yarn hosted its first pattern submission contest! Wow, what great entries we had and we actually wound up choosing 2 winners who won a $100 shopping spree on Darn Good Yarn! (pssssst! By the way, we're going to keep this as a staple at Darn Good Yarn. So be sure to follow us on facebook to get the scoop or email us at info@darngoodyarn.com for more info)
One of our winners was Denae! A designer and obvious lover of colors. She runs an etsy shop plus a few other goodies across the web. Take a moment to stop by and like her pages and say a hi from DGY-land:

Watch more of Denae here and lets support her as she grows her fabulous designs!
She designed a cowl neck poncho out of Darn Good Yarn's Recycled Photon Rainbow Sport Weight Recycled Silk Yarn. You can actually see the Cowl Neck Poncho she made in the background of this video. Isn't that cool?
So, here's the deal! If you're a knitter and you want to get the kit (which includes the yarn and the printed pattern) now's your chance to get first dibs on the pattern. Now, I don't want you worrying one bit. If you are beginner, you can so do this! You need to know how to knit in the round on circular needles (size 5's) plus Kfb – Knit into the front and back of the stitch
K2W – Knit wrapping the working yarn twice
around the needle before slipping the stitch over
K3W – Knit wrapping the working yarn three
times around the needle before slipping the stitch over
K5W – Knit wrapping the working yarn five
times around the needle before slipping the stitch over
(Nicole's tip: There are youtube videos for all of these techniques if you're at all freaked out by them!)
The yarn for the kit uses 4 skeins of our Recycled Photon Rainbow Yarn. By purchasing the kit you will save too!
